Legislative Notes.
l.. Mr.. Lees bill to tax express companies fell
into the clutches of the clerk of the senate
railroad committee, and Mr.. Lee was unable
to get it out of chancery, although he made
repeated efforts to have it reported back. For
some reason the chairman kept it in his
pocket. Mr.. Lee became desperate and tackled
the bill on to a senate bill as an amendment,
and had both sent back. But the senate stood
on its dignity and refused to concur, and in
this way both bills were hung up.
In the senate committee of the whole yes
terday the claim of Conrad Bohn for work
done on the St. Peter insane hospital caused
heated debate. Senator Daniels denounced
the claim in forcible terms, and Senator Ward
rtbuked his differences. Senator Ives said
that the contract figures were $4,000. and
Bohn received sos, 900. The committees re-

court, was adopted.

yesterday that the Hobbies were cleared and
the sergeant-at-arInS instructed to stop the
members from talking. For a time it was

move would be interpreted to mean that the
members were afraid to have their actions see
the light.
Gov. McGill returned to the house without
his signature the bill relating to the wearing
of G, A. r. badges by persons not entitled to

of the whole yesterday afternoon. The SEN

postponement. The motion prevailed
